Jack Wardog is a slave who has had his memories erased and an explosive placed into his skull.
Should Wardog fail a mission his head literally explodes.
This is to ensure his loyalty to the Endtrail Enclaved.

Your quest is to uncover your past for you are surely framed for your crimes.

Gameplay

Combat would be real-time with some turn-based functions aiming at individual parts of your enemies.
You can harvest silicon from enemies providing you haven't shot at it and destroyed its value.
The advanced AI made for complex battles, and as such you can trick enemies into fighting each other.

There are missions that are on a timer with his head exploding should the time expire.

The game was originally an third-person shooter with over-the-shoulder aiming.
Then around 2002 the game was shifted to have an isometric viewpoint.
